The Top 3 Reasons People Get Divorced (Besides Cheating), According to Family Law Attorneys

What are the top three reasons for divorce, other than cheating? The first one is that people seem to get married far too young. And so when they get married too young, they're not financially stable, and their perspectives and desires in life are different than when they become older. So I see people growing apart. It's usually not pleaded that way — you usually don't hear that directly — but you can see it in the conduct, and you can see it in the tendencies of both spouses. Number two is the one that I just touched upon, which would be financial issues. Typically finances can destroy a marriage, because either they have too few, and so there's always bickering about money, and saving, and not spending money, and somebody getting a job instead of staying home all day — so that creates a lot of tension. Or there's too much money, and they have so much money that they can do whatever they want, and they typically do. And then they typically don't do those things with their spouse. Number three would be the most common reason: the grass is greener. They have somebody they're interested in at the workplace, whatever that is, but they take for granted their relationship and all that they've built, because they think that there's a greener pasture in the horizon. Those are the things that I see.
